OverviewQuantico, Virginia is home to a subsection of the FBI known as the BAU – Behavioral Analysis Unit. Revolving around a team of intelligent, unique FBI profilers, each episode explores the psyche of serial killers, madmen, and potential threats. After investigating evidence from brutal crime scenes, these amazing individuals comprise a profile of the killer, fighting against the clock to ensure civilians remain safe from another potential slaying. The team is composed of a brilliant computer whiz, an intellectual genius, a duo of hard-working leading men, and other essential detectives to make tracking a killer that much easier. Their work isn't always easy, as delving into criminal minds would obviously have backlashes. Each member of the BAU has had problems maintaining working relationships or families outside of their team, choosing instead to call their work-partners “family.”
